697229 ÷ 3 
We want to divide 697229 by 3.

Moving on to step 1:
The number 3 fits into 6 2 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Write down 2 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 2.0
Subtract 6 from 6 to get 0.
Bring next digit (9) of the dividend behind the 0 and repeat the process: 9 / 3

Moving on to step 2:
The number 3 fits into 9 3 times, leaving a remainder of 0.
Write down 3 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 23.0
If we take 9 away from 9, we end up with 0.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 0 and repeat the process: 7 / 3

On to step 3:
When dividing 7 by 3, we get 2 with a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 232.0
If we take 6 away from 7, we end up with 1.
Grab the next digit (2) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 12 / 3

On to step 4:
3 goes into 12 4 times with a remainder of 0.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 2324.0
If we subtract 12 from 12, we get 0.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 0 and repeat the process: 2 / 3

Let's proceed to step 5:
If we divide 2 by 3, we get 0 and a remainder of 2.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 23240.0
Subtracting 0 from 2 leaves us with 2.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 2 and continue with: 29 / 3

Let's proceed to step 6:
The number 3 fits into 29 9 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 232409.0
If we take 27 away from 29, we end up with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
3 can be fit into 20 6 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 232409.6
Deduct 18 from 20 and we're left with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Step 8:
If we divide 20 by 3, we get 6 and a remainder of 2.
The next digit of our result is 6. 
Result so far: 232409.66
If we take 18 away from 20, we end up with 2.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

The final result is 232409.66 with a remainder of 0.002.
